O’s Notes: This new Holiday CD contains 13 gems featuring Steve Nelson (vibes), Rodney Green (d), Barak Mori (b) with Reed on piano. Paula West and Erin Bode add vocals on four of the tracks. While you may recognize some of the melodies of these songs, for the most part, Eric’s new arrangements can be played as enjoyable swinging jazz throughout the year. But we’ll definitely keep it in our Holiday rotation as well!
